Abstract
The contraction map as the basis of fixed point theory here was extensively studied as a map in a complete metric space that leads to successive approximations called iterations. Precisely, considered in this work, are the Banach and Rall contraction mapping principles. Convergence of the basic fixed point iteration based on these two theorems was as well explored. Finally, application of the said contraction mapping principle was made on the theory of Integral Equations and Non-linear Integral Equations of Radioactive Transfer.
Keywords: Contraction, fixed point convergence, integral equations, radioactive transfer
